All virtually all other professional sports teams in the US are either majority owned by an individual owner, or a megacorporation--somewhat like how newspapers are. Megacorporation (Hearst, with their fancy fucking new building in NYC, shutting down the PI) or individual (the Seattle Times.)

Shares in the Packers are lovingly handed down in wills. The city of Green Bay doesn't own them. The people in the city do.

And, why isn't this just Crosscut? Because crosscut, like almost all existing online-only news sources is heavy on analysis, low on reporting. It's the newsroom--all those reporters with decades of contacts and experience on their respective beats--that deserves preserving the most. Crosscut--hell any blog you'd name that covers the NW--can't touch what even the slimmed down PI offers.

Let them live off the taxpayer...but write what they want -- kind of like a PBS for text.
